In the figure shown strings AB and BC have masses m and 2m respectively. Both are of same length l.Mass of each string is uniformly distributed on its length. The string is suspended vertically from the ceiling of a room.A small jerk wave pulse is given at the end 'C'.It goes up to upper end 'A' in time 't' .If the value of t is given by `a sqrt(l/g)+b sqrt(l/g)(sqrtc-sqrtd)` then a+b+c+d is

A

`(620)/(670)s`

B

`(434)/(205)s`

C

2s

D

None of thse

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

We use `v_(c) = sqrt(gx)`
` underset(0)overset(l)(int)(dx)/(sqrt(x)) = underset(0)overset(BC)(int)sqrt(g)dt`
`2sqrt(l) = g t_(BC)`
`t_(BC)` = `2sqrt((l)/(g))`
`v_(AB) = sqrt(((2m + (m)/(l)x)g)/(m/l)) = sqrt((2 + (x)/(l))gl)`
`underset(0)overset(l)(int)(dx)/(sqrt(2+(x)/(l))) = underset(0)overset(AB)(int)sqrt(gl) dt`
`2lsqrt(2 + (x)/(l)) = sqrt(gl) t_(ab)`
`2l(sqrt(3) -sqrt(2)) = sqrt(gl) t_(AB)`
`t_(AB) = 2(sqrt(3) - sqrt(2)) sqrt((l)/(g))`
`t = t_(BC) = t_(AB) = 2sqrt((l)/(g))(l + sqrt(3) - sqrt(2))`
`1.3 xx 2sqrt((961)/(1181) ) = 2.6 xx(31)/(41) = 1.96 cong2s`
